The area is to be used for recreational huts and holiday huts which are not treated as main residences. In the area, to a limited extent, tourist huts, hunting huts and emergency huts may be established, as long as their number does not change the fact that the area is primarily used for recreational huts, holiday cottages etc.It is possible to establish facilities that can be used for small-scale commercial activities such as drying racks, smoking chambers, horticulture and the like as long as these are solely for one’s own personal use. Such facilities are to be established near the hut in question.

Traffic service and utilities

The existing systems of roads, wheel tracks, paths and jetties can be maintained and expanded. Technical supply plants can only be established as small, independent facilities near each hut. For instance, generators as well as solar cells or other power production facilities. All small facilities are to be established in a manner that ensures that using them does not cause any inconvenience to neighbours, such as noise, smoke, odours, vibrations or the like.Solid waste is either to be incinerated or transported away. Incineration is to entail no risk to surrounding buildings or nature, nor is it to cause inconvenience to anyone.For night soil, it is possible to use sanitary buckets. The content is either to be emptied directly into the sea, composted or disposed in of such a manner that it does not cause inconvenience to anyone or the surrounding nature.
